Product Description

The Flame 360 (U.S. Patent# 6,397,491 B1) is a powerful and versatile flame treatment system designed for fast pretreatment, durability, and continuous use. Burners come in sizes of 6″ (153mm), 10″ (254mm), and 12″ (305mm), with larger options available upon request. The flame height is easily adjustable with a magnetic metal strip for precise control.

Key Features

  • Height and angular adjustment for SA burner.
  • Universal vacuum plates securely hold most cylindrical products without the need for special holding nests. Dedicated tooling made for odd shaped products.
  • Uses an all mechanical Geneva indexer with a brilliantly simple overload clutch. The Geneva indexer provides harmonic (smooth acceleration and deceleration) dial motion.
  • Entire print area is rotated 360 degrees through the flame to maximize adhesion. Uniformity of treatment is guaranteed.

FieroSil is available for optimal ink adhesion. FieroSil and flame can both be operational on your pre-treatment system.

Specification Detail
Model / part number FT-8SI-0001 — Flame Treater with 8-station indexer
Materials treated Plastics (PE, PET, PP, POM), metals, and glass — prior to bonding, painting, or printing
Flame length Set with a slide-in burner head — change flame width without changing the burner
Burner height setting Quick adjustment with a height scale referenced to the platen — repeatable setups, job after job
FieroSil exhaust package Overhead hood with two high-temperature blowers, 310 CFM each (620 CFM total) — required when adding the FieroSil dosing system
Built in Farmington, Connecticut, USA — one-year limited warranty

Add FieroSil When Flame Alone Isn't Enough

  • One machine, two treatments — the Flame 360 accepts the FieroSil™ dosing system, and flame and FieroSil run on the same unit. Start with flame; add FieroSil when a stubborn ink, glue, or varnish demands it.
  • Plan the install right — FieroSil installations pair with the overhead exhaust package (620 CFM total), so your HVAC conversation happens before the machine arrives, not after.
  • Repeatable by design — height scale on the burner, adjustable index and rotation speed, and a slide-in head mean the settings that worked last run are the settings you get this run.
  • High-volume bottles? — the dedicated Bottle Treater runs continuous bottle streams; for cup lines, flame integrates directly into the T8-SS.

Features

Engineering Features

  • Part flexibility for cylindrical and irregular shaped items. Sizes from ball point pen barrels to gallon containers.
  • Height and angular adjustment for burner.
  • Overload clutch.
  • Machine control technique entirely eliminates the problem of electrical component obsolescence.
  • Geneva indexer provides harmonic (smooth acceleration and deceleration) dial motion.
  • Entire print area is rotated 360 degrees through the flame to maximize adhesion. Uniformity of treatment is guaranteed.
  • Rotating through the flame allows for the fastest cycling time while ensuring thorough, consistent treating.
  • Once parts are loaded, no rollers, belts, or escapements adjust. Changeover from one part to the next can’t get any easier.
  • Whether promoting adhesion for UV inks, coatings, or adhesives, the flame treatment system allows adjustment of indexing and rotation speed as well as flame height.
  • Compact design.
  • Affordable price.
